Hi Laraby - Amazon.com had changed its site, and I hadn't updated my script to match it. (They used to preface the ISBN with "ISBN"; now it's "ISBN-10" or "ISBN-13".) I've updated the script now, and if you install the new version, it should show you the smiley / frowny face in the lower right corner of the page. Right now, the Atlanta-Fulton Public Library catalog is down, so it will be a frown no matter what, but once it's back up, it should give you one or the other depending on whether the library has a book with that isbn.

Thanks!

Drew, I use firefox and have greasemonkey installed (smiley monkey face). I installed this script, but when I go to a amazon page with ISBN I don't see where it shows if the library has the book or not.
Can you help?

Drew,

I just discovered Greasemonkey and love it. I live in Toledo OH. How difficult would it be to adapt this for the Toledo Public Library?

Thanks,

Mark

Brilliant. A lengthy load, but quite worth it. An innovative concept – very much unlike all the other scripts in the category. Kudos to you Drew. Thank you for this wonderful script.
